In Situ Dissection of RNA Functional Subunits by Domain-Specific Chromatin Isolation by RNA Purification (dChIRP). Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.) Quinn, J. J., Chang, H. Y. 2015; 1262: 199-213

Abstract

Here we describe domain-specific chromatin isolation by RNA purification (dChIRP), a technique for dissecting the functional domains of a target RNA in situ. For an RNA of interest, dChIRP can identify domain-level intramolecular and intermolecular RNA-RNA, RNA-protein, and RNA-DNA interactions and maps the RNA's genomic binding sites with higher precision than domain-agnostic methods. We illustrate how this technique has been applied to the roX1 lncRNA to resolve its domain-level architecture, discover its protein- and chromatin-interacting domains, and map its occupancy on the X chromosome.
